Hi all,
Congrats Shannon on 10 days until surgery.
I agree regarding the last 15 months...they have come and gone quickly. Best wishes on your surgery and DO come and write about your experience. mine is scheduled for Jan 8 with a lift and a tt, so I will be curious to hear how yours went. I will be thinking of you and sending positive thoughts your way!! jacqueline

Hey Shannon, what an awesome Christmas present -- to have perky boobs and a flat tummy!! Doesn't get any better than that, does it.
Thanks for the hint/advice about the mystery shopper. I had a feeling!!
love

Totally agreeing with you on our own destiny! Our pouches are tools we will have the rest of our lives! I just remember before I had surgery thinking how long 18 months seemed, but it came and went so fast!
I have been spending a lot of time over at the PS forum. Can you believe my breast reduction and tummy tuck are in just 10 DAYS??? I'm so excited I can barely contain myself
Oh, and if you are hearing an ad for mystery shopping, then it's a scam! Don't do it, they are just trying to get money out of you for information you can obtain for free. Here is my website for all the free information you need to get started: mysteryshopresources.com

Hi Shannon, I've heard that too, but I tend to disagree. I think it's true that we have 18 months (or whatever) to lose in an easier fashion, but after that I think we can still lose but we have to work it a little harder. I am sort of a stubborn person, and I know that when my surgeon told me my goal, based on my age, was 175-200, I thought to myself, no way am I doing this to have a 2 in front of any number on the scale! I wanted to be 150. Well I am now 149-151, depending on the day. I went to my surgeon last week and was told I was the poster child for the office, and that I was a good example for all the other patients!! And -- he adjusted my goal weight!! So I guess my point is - I believe we are in charge of our destiny, it just will be a little harder.
By the way, how are you, I haven't seen you around lately. I hear an ad on our radio to call to be a mystery shopper and I want to do that, but am skeptical that it's a scam. Anyway, I think of you and miss seeing your pretty face posting!!

Hi Emily, you look beautiful!! And your children are adorable (and handsome hubby as well!!). I love the pictures. You remind me of a movie star and I can't think who. It will come to me and I'll tell you -- but you look fantastic.

Topic: RE: One thing I miss from before
Hi Courtney, you know what I miss - I miss not always knowing the exact size I wear. I used to always get a 3X, top, bottom, extra long tops, stretchy waist on the pants, or long skirts. Now I am never sure what size and I have to try things on, and I always think the tops are too short looking and try them on and they fit. Now don't get me wrong - no way do I want to be a 3X, but the convenience of knowing was nice. I like to buy from catalogs alot and now I am returning!!
Oh well, small price to pay, right!!
love

Topic: wow moment
lol I was running in the store to get something in a hurry and this lady stopped me to say "I just want to shake your hand because your so athletic running to get that so fast" I thought to myself "lady you just don't know how fat I use to be" lol but I took the compliment and left with a big grin on my face!!! Just thought I would share with you my great moment even tho it was a small one. I never thought of myself as being ATHLETIC!!!
